| | THANKS!
For helping keep this great
old truck web site

Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 2,953 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 2,953 | Curious as to how much we are all paying to insure our old trucks. My latest premium was $621 for the year and it includes one million in liability, fire and theft and glass breakage. There is no collision insurance in that. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 1,158 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 1,158 | I've just got PLPD on mine (Personal Liability and Property Damage) and it runs a little over $500 a year.
But, then again, I don't drive it in the winter and I don't keep insurance on it from mid November to sometime in March or April. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,756 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,756 | I must have a heck of a bargin. Pay about $250 a year(6mos. layup, just fire and theft.) and I have $15,000 collision in the summer. It it titled as a Historical vehicle if that makes any different. Using auto owmers now but have heard that Haggertys is good on Rods and such. might add that I am a senior but still rod it about 3,000 miles a year. ain't one of these old farts. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 313 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 313 | I pay a little under $400 per year for mine in Georgia. When I lived in Connecticut, I was paying about $1,200.00 with the same company and coverage.  | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 122 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 122 | I am paying much much less than that, but my truck is running a year of issue plate, and that cuts some costs in Michigan, in addition to the insurance.
You might want to check out Haggerty insurance, I think they are in Traverse City, Michigan. I have mine through them. No need for a claim so far, but I have heard a lot of good things about them before signing up. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,756 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,756 | | | | | | Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 1,317 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 1,317 | You might want to check out State Farm....my full coverage, liability ,100/300, 50k property, 50 ded.comp and collision, and road service included, with limited mileage runs me $206.44 annually.
The truck is currently insured for $12,500. and if I want to increase that, I can have it appraised.
I might add that I have a multi-line discount as I have other vehicles and homeowners with the same company. The major insurance companies seem to have recognized that they were missing out on a bunch of mature drivers who were careful with their equipment. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 466 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 466 | Liability and towing, $210 for 6 mos. This is through my home/vehicle insurance Co.
Buddy | | | | | Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 1,867 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 1,867 | Ive got hagerty through my allstate insurance for my 53. They cover the same as my regular trucks, at 100/300/100 full coverage. Its 95$ a year with the trucks value at 5000$. Of course your supposed to keep it in a locked garage and not drive it as a daily driver... | | | | | Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 45 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 45 | I have Haggerty on my 59 in NYS. $12,000 coverage on comp and collision, no deductible, 300k liability. $124 a year. Will add another 59 taht I am working on in a couple of years.

I rarely put 500 miles on any of them per year so limited use works for me. My agent said as long as I don't drive them to work everyday, they would be considered limited use. My agents' pretty cool, he said there wouldn't be anyway to prove how much I drive them anyway, so go ahead and drive them as much as I want.

I guess it depends on the population of your area. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 122 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 122 | I should have added that my truck has a 350 chevy so it is considered a modified vehicle and more expensive. | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | Mine's $254 every 3 months, full coverage, agreed value on the '55. the policy covers both the '55 and the '85 Blazer beater. It's through Westfeild.
